Interactive Non-Fiction: Towards a New Approach for Storytelling in Digital Journalism
Project Development: Published Academic Paper
After encountering Inform 7, a program for authoring Interactive Fiction, while studying Digital Media at the University of Central Florida, I began to think about how this decades-old storytelling method could breath new life into digital journalism. The outgrowth of this exploration led to a paper published at the International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling, which I coauthored with Dr. Jichen Zhu. A sample and abstract of the paper can be viewed at SpringerLink.com.
